In May 2015, Anna Kendrick donned a colorful gown at the Pitch Perfect 2 premiere at the Nokia Theatre at LA Live in Los Angeles.
She was 29 years old when Pitch Perfect 2, the 2015 American musical comedy film, premiered. The popular movie actress was born on August 9, 1985, and the movie was released on May 15, 2015. A sequel, Pitch Perfect 3, was released on December 22, 2017.

In the opening scenes of the movie, footage of the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, and First Lady Michelle Obama was used.
The edited footage was from the 2013 reception of The 36th Annual Kennedy Center Honors held in the East Room of the White House in Washington, where Anna Kendrick performed as part of a musical tribute to 2013 Honoree Shirley MacLaine.
Additionally, the film features the popular song “Cups,” which also featured in the first movie during Anna Kendrick’s character’s audition for the Bellas.

This song originated from an old bluegrass tune, and the movie version is a cover of Lulu and the Lampshade’s rendition.
At one point in the movie, Beca’s German counterpart Komissar refers to her as a troll. Interestingly, Kendrick voiced the lead character in Dreamworks’ animated film Trolls (2016). After a DSM performance at an auto show, Beca is called a Troll.
Anna Kendrick is from Maine, and while at the retreat, Cynthia mentions that she plans to get married in Maine after graduation.
